Arizona FHEXPO

A great afternoon at the expo. Attended a great session on researching Canadian census records by Kathryn Lake Hogan. During the lecture she mentioned the free Canadian Census site, automatedgenealogy.com. While this site does not include the 1871 or 1881 census, it prompted me to once again check the records for my Great Grandfather, Arthur Patterson, born abt 1867 in New Brunswick on Ancenstry.com. Sure enough, there he was in the 1871 census, 4 years old, with his large family.

Welcome to Family History Tech

I have been doing genealogy research off and on for over 40 years, sometimes more off than on. After recently retiring from the IT industry I decided to try and take that experience and apply it to genealogy. This blog will follow that journey as well as some of my experiences researching my own ancestors.
